I’m a crybaby. I can’t even begin to list the movies that make me cry. The last movie to make me bawl my eyes out was Dancer in the Dark. And the documentary Dear Zachary made me feel gutted. Just gutted.

“The Land Before Time” – right in the beginning, where Little Foot’s mother gets killed and he’s left on his own… oh my god! That shit is sad!... I was only about 5 or 6.

Nowadays more or less it’s more of that tingling, ‘deep’ sensation I get rather than cry. Sometimes my mom suckers me into watching one of those 50 hour lifetime movies – those can choke me up a bit. “Crash” also made me tear up.

i cry at tampon commercials. Really, I cry at spots in movies, not a specific movie. Well….I still cry at Love Story but I cried at that as a book and as a movie. Golly, Love Story is my best cry! Thank you for asking the Q…I kinda forgot about Jennifer and Oliver. I am weeping a bit now…

Certain season finales of tv shows make my bottom lip quiver. The end of season 2 of Doctor Who is a fine example of this. You get to know the characters so well, and then something tragic happens and then the season ends just like that. But cliffhangers are awesome because they make you hope for more.

Ok, you’ll probably roll your eyes at me, but the end of the episode of Futurama when Fry wants to bring back his dead dog is sooooooooo sad. Gets me every time.

@Ludy That’s far from stupid. Everyone I saw the film with teared up. A little boy down the row from me turned to his dad and said, “Daddy? What happened? Where did the lady go?” I lost it.. then I cried again when he discovered the message she left in the scrapbook. Up became an instant favourite.

well, now I don’t feel bad, I watched it with my fiance, and suddenly I started crying and he got scared, he tought something was happening to me and I just felt embarrased because I am 23 years old, I tought I should be tougher by now, but thank u guys for sharing that with me !

You know, I always thought I was weird for not crying at movies still do, kind of. But the only film I remember crying to was the end of Pay It Forward. It was one of the most unfair endings I’ve ever seen.

Billy Elliot, (also because it was the last movie my mom and I watched together when she was going through chemo), Terms of Endearment, The Secret Life of Bees, Saving Private Ryan, Never Ending Story when the horse dies, Steen Magnolias, Patch Adams, Pay it Forward, And pretty much all the Lord of the Ring Movies because I’m homesick for NZ, .. probably many others but all I can think of now.

Marley and me reminds me of one of my mischievous dogs.. he makes me so mad but I love him no matter what.. and I can’t help but imagine the day I’ll have to say goodbye every time I watch that movie.. it’s so sad :-(

I couldn’t think of any recent movies I watched that made me cry, except for Marley and Me. The overall movie is not the best in the world, but people are soulless if they don’t shed a tear, get watery eyes, a lump in their throat – something, when watching that movie. I will never watch that movie again. :(

@cazzie That’s a great list of movies. Billy Elliot is close to my heart (and I hope your mother is in better health now). And I teared up during The Return of the King when Pippin was singing and everyone thought I was loony, but you can just feel the sadness in his voice.

Sometimes I get a tad misty eyed at certain commercials. I’m a very emotional being. But lots of movies have gotten to me. Especially Simon Birch, 3 Wishes, Lion King, The Chronicles of Narnia, Up (I cried really hard at the beginning when it was showing the back story of him and his wife) etc. Some tv shows have gotten to me too (surprise, surprise). The end of the season of House when he gets admitted to the mental hospital. I also cried when Conan O’Brian gave his ending speech at the very end of his last taping on The Tonight Show.

Eight Below (2006) for sure made me cry! And I’m not a big crier. I had to literally fight off my tears It should have received far more acclaim and I thought Paul Walker was great. Very beautifully constructed and subtle, but very sad and touching. In Good Company (2004) also makes me cry, it’s funny yet tragic, because it’s just so real—non of that saturated hollywood tear-jerking romance or gimmick. I would suggest also revisiting some childhood Disney movies; the purity and innocence of the relationships makes you pine for them in real life and envy them at the same time. The quality of the conflicts are also very real and applicable to everyday life. An Extremely Goofy Movie, Pooh’s Grand Adventure, The Tigger Movie. Avatar also made me cry towards the end.
